    Changing a forgotten pin

    Hi Gibby,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with your PIN on your new PC. Are you referring to Windows Hello PIN? If yes, you may remove it by following these steps:

    Open the Windows 11 “Start” menu and click on “Settings”.

    with the "Settings" menu open, click on "Accounts"

    in the right side menu, click on “Sign-in options”.

    click on the item “PIN (Windows Hello)” and click “Remove”.

    a message will ask if you really want to remove your Windows PIN.

    Regards,

    Alvaro

    devo reimpostare il pin del controllo parentale

    Sorry to hear it. In order to reset the pin the person who put it on will either need to enter the correct pin or type in the wrong pin 3 times before they're given an option to enter their password if they've forgotten the pin

    Parental Controls PIN

    hello MozLN the Xbox pin or Microsoft pin is different to parental control pin it could be that your parents have set the pin or you may have forgotten the pin if not i would suggest you contact Microsoft support to reset your pin: https://beta.support.xbox.com/contact-us

    Pin code for gamepass on my sons PC that i have never set up?

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Kristian, if it is a 4-digit Pin or more, this is usually set up by the user of the account on the PC itself, if you have forgotten the Pin, you should choose to choose the option "Forgot my Pin" option and enter normally with the password of the Microsoft account.

    Change your PIN when you’re already signed in to your device
